Athos and Astrid just dying was a bit boring, and I really don’t like that Kell and Rhy are bounded to each other, this is just a plot point I personally don’t enjoySpoiler

the main character is a special type of magic user that uses their blood to use more complex abilities. the cutting of hands or arms in order to use these powers is mentioned frequently, and is also used to describe injuries characters sustain as well. the sexual assault is never accomplished, although it is attempted and alluded to more than once.
